Mounting of the exhaust pipe
• Using only the hose provided, screw unit adapter to exhaust hose then clip the unit adaptor to the back of the air conditioner.
• Avoid kinks and bends in the exhaust hose as this will cause expelled moist air to build up causing the
unit to overheat and shut down. (Fig 8 & 9 show correct position).
NOTE: For best results do not exceed a 45º angle.( Fig 10)
• The hose may be extended from 1-5 ft /300mm -1500mm but for maximum efficiency use the shortest straightest length possible.
It is not recommended to exceed 5 feet for this will diminish the efficiency of the unit. See WARNING Figure 11

WARNING
The length of the exhaust pipe is specially designed according to the
specification of this product. Do not replace or lengthen it with your own
hose as this will cause the unit to malfunction.
